It was a busy morning. Things may be taking a slightly different
direction
than I first envisioned.
I got lucky and hooked up with a professional musician who is very
experienced, knowledgeable and is well known in the music field
and in
acedemia. He presented the concept of doing something I had
never thought
about, nor would I have at my level of experience. I'll explain
more as it
evolves (assuming it evolves) but it could be quite interesting
and provide
an instant shot in the arm for my little budding hobby/business.

A laser light show set to Pink Floyd?

You and your knucklehead friend Harry are full of cute comments but
aren't even close.
I may have the opportunity to collaborate on a project with the
Berklee College of Music. Fortunately it doesn't involve my musical
abilities because compared to the people I am meeting I don't have
any. But does involve some of my equipment and organization.
It could be very interesting. Film at 11.

For Harry: I picked up a vintage, 1963 classical guitar today.
It's a beauty. Feels strange to me with it's super wide
neck/fretboard but sounds nice. I have oiled the wood up and
replaced the nylon strings which will now take about a week to
stretch and remain stable. Not my style for a regularly played
guitar, but a nice addition to the shop.

Wow...next you'll apprentice yourself to a luthier. Was it a Guild?
Guild had some really nice Spanish guitars in those days. I had one.

Oh sure Harry, just like I have German screwdrivers.

Wish I had some German screwdrivers. I bought the Guild used at Goldie's
Music Shop in downtown New Haven. It was a great musical instrument and
sheet music store. Couldn't afford a new guitar of the quality Goldie
sold, nor was I the kind of player who needed one.


I have a set I'll sell you. They come with every BMW. Since there is
no need for them, I'll let them go for $125.00.
